Let Her Go" is a song recorded by English singer-songwriter Passenger. So while this song was inspired by a break up it's much larger than that. I played it and he wanted to hear it again and without him saying so, I could tell how much this song made him miss his own lovely lady. Once when was on a 2 week R&R I had put this song on my iPod and my middle son who is also on Bagram Airbase with me and I we were just hanging out one night and I was playing the new songs I had down loaded. I've had a lot of time away from my wife, and for me this song describes the loneliness I feel when I am away from my wife. A LOT ! And once I retired from the Army I went right back to the war working for a command in in the Department of the Army. In my case I have been married - happily married I add, to the same lady for over 30 years and I was career military with 3 combat tours of duty in the war against terrorism, but in the almost 25 years that I was in the Army I was gone a lot. But I think this song transcends a break-up it's larger than that. Mark Grant from Natchitoches, LaYeah, I read all the above comments about Mike Rosenberg writing Let Her Go after a break-up and that's great and all I mean it's sad, and the song is great and now they are sort of friends again - that's great.Making me see this song in another way round. Sandra from NigeriaWow, Mark, your comment is so beautiful.Olumide from NigeriaI've never seen a comment about a song this real.And this song ache my heart each time I listened to it,it has been on replay for weeks now the worlds and the lines are just too powerful Labet from NigeriaThis song vis really killing me inside,I have a girl here whom I loved so much we have been together for 4years now she has been misbehaving and becoming to difficult for me to handle,now I'm considering letting her go.And everytime I hear of it I think of my grandma. This song for me has a whole other meaning. And when she passed away in 2016 all we could play was this song and we played it for her before she passed.
